## Duplicate Field Arrest

There are times when multiple arrests occur for the same location and charges. You must create a separate Field Arrest record for each Arrestee, and for your convenience, the Duplicate button at the top of the Edit Field Arrest form duplicates the Field Arrest record for each Arrestee systematically to avoid duplicate manual entry.

During the Duplicate process, you also select the Field Arrest areas to Duplicate, such as officers, narrative, charges, etc.

When adding a new Field Arrest the Edit Field Arrest screen appears automatically after selecting the Arrestee. For more information on adding Field Arrests refer to Create Field Arrest Manually.

To Edit an existing Field Arrest you must first Search for the Field Arrest you want to Edit, then select the appropriate Field Arrest to open the Edit Field Arrest screen. For more information on searching Field Arrests refer to Search Field Arrests.
